Going along with the recent attempt to make information more accessible and organized, I think it would be a good idea to have a general reference post for information on getting weapons. Given what goes on at night and the fact that we all need to get out of here, weapons are obviously necessary, and new patients should at least know where to go to arm themselves. Besides, if people who can make weapons can coordinate, the patient body could be armed a lot faster and more efficiently.

I'd like it if anyone who knows anything about making weapons, by any method, could respond and share as much information about their abilities as possible. I understand if you don't feel comfortable making this information public, but take into consideration that the more people are armed, the greater chance we all stand of being able to take down Landel. Even if that doesn't appeal to you, I'm sure you can sell weapons. Making your abilities and contact information more easily available would bring more people to your door if bartering is what you're interested in.

If you know anything at all about making any kind of weapon, please answer as much of the following as you can:
1. Your name, or alias if you prefer.
2. Can you make a weapon/weapons yourself? If so, what kind? Swords, spears, bombs, chemical weapons? Please answer even if you don't think it's something that can be done on the premises, and be as specific as you can.
3. Even if you can't physically make a weapon, do you have any knowledge about how to do so? If so, would you be willing to share that knowledge?
4. By what type of method do you make these weapons? I've seen things on this board about alchemy, but I'm interested in any method at all. If you'd care to share details about the method, it would be appreciated.
5. What materials, if any, are required for you to make a weapon? Do you know if they can be obtained on the premises?
6. How much time do you need to make a weapon? How many can you make at a time? Do you need time to rest or make preparations between weapons, and if so, how much?
7. Are there any other special conditions necessary for you to make a weapon? Please be specific.
8. Are you willing to put these talents to work for the other patients? Would you be willing to do it for free, or for compensation?
9. If you're already making weapons for other patients, are you affiliated with any of the clubs, or are you working together with anyone to do so?
10. Would you make a weapon for anyone, or only a specific group of people? (I.e. if you had some kind of contract with a club.) Does someone have to do anything specific for you to make a weapon for them, and if so, what?
11. Finally, if you answered yes to #8, how can you be contacted? Even if you answered no, contact information would be appreciated, if you feel comfortable giving it.

If you've already put some of this information on the board and offered your services, I would appreciate it if you took the time to fill this out anyway, so we can have everything in one place. Thank you all for cooperating with this!

- The Hunter
- I can make spears, stakes and practice swords
- I've got a blade to cut/carve with and the knowledge to balance them properly
- Wood
- I make a few of my own each night before the door open.
- I rarely don't do anything for free.
- Not a part of a club.
- If the price is right, I'll consider anything.
- To contact me, ask on this board to talk to the Hunter. I might make time. I have more important things to do than arm people if they can't use the fucking weapons.

If wood could be gotten from outside, could you make a whole bunch of them? Provided you were paid properly, I mean. What kind of compensation would you be looking for?

The closet poles make much better spears and stakes than timber. They're easier to get, too.

I like my clients to give me an offer, but I'll generally accept supplies or information. Depends on my mood.

But there's a limited number of them, isn't there?

Okay, thank you. I'll make a note of that.

1 - Flamel
2 - I can make swords, spears, bows (although they take more time and effort), most things.
4 - Alchemy
5 - The raw materials. Metal usually, of an equal amount as would be needed for the weapon. Metal's pretty easy to come by
6 - A few minutes usually. I can make a couple a night and it's tiring
8/9/10 - I work for the Cooking Club mainly. Their stuff comes first. Anyone else, I choose after meeting them. And people need to provide materials.

Thank you very much! What would be the best way to contact you -- over the bulletin, or through the Cooking Club? I'd like to hear more about how alchemy works, but of course if you don't want to share that it's understandable.
